Therapy for Self-Esteem
Rebuilding confidence and self-worth—one gentle step at a time.
Do you feel like you’ve lost touch with who you are outside of being “mom”? Do you second-guess yourself constantly or feel like you're never doing enough—for your kids, your partner, or yourself?
Motherhood has a way of magnifying old insecurities. You may feel like you’re failing, even when you’re doing your best. You may find yourself stuck in comparison, perfectionism, people-pleasing—or just feeling invisible. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
Low self-esteem can show up in subtle but powerful ways:
Feeling anxious or withdrawn in social settings
Apologizing for your needs or overexplaining yourself
Putting everyone else first until there’s nothing left for you
Feeling like you're “not good enough” no matter how hard you try
Harsh inner self-talk or difficulty accepting compliments
Avoiding risks, setting goals, or trusting your instincts
How Low Self-Esteem Shows Up in Motherhood
Moms with low self-esteem often fall into patterns like:
Imposter Syndrome – “I’m just winging it, and one day everyone will realize I don’t know what I’m doing.”
Perfectionism or People-Pleasing – Always trying to keep the peace or get it just right, often at your own expense.
Victimhood or Self-Doubt – Feeling helpless or stuck, believing you’re not capable or worthy of more.
These patterns often come from old wounds—messaging we received in childhood, cultural expectations, or relationships where our voice and needs didn’t matter. The good news? This isn’t who you are. It’s what you learned. And it can be unlearned.
Therapy Can Help You:
Quiet the inner critic and build self-compassion
Let go of guilt and unrealistic expectations
Reconnect with your strengths and personal identity
Feel more confident in your decisions—as a mom and as a woman
Cultivate boundaries, joy, and emotional resilience.
